Whitelock's text presents a scheme of conciliatory parliamentary government, based on cooperation & mutual responsibility of King, Commons & Lords; Morton's preface gives an account of the MS & its author.
The t-p appears to be the work of Thomas Hollis (all caps, with raised full stops between each word, reminiscent of Roman inscriptions) although this title is not a documented part of his corpus.
